Nice little story nugget there. Subliminally reminds me of Beatles white album , circa "the dutchess of kirkaldie(sp?) always smiling and arriving late for tea.." (the actual title of that song eluding me at the moment..) Oh, that's right, wer'e supposed to talk about the recording quality. Sounds c...

Posted by Falken over on Homerecording: "got this email today.... ATR Magnetics Update - January 2007 ATR Magnetics is ready to supply analog mastering tape and will meet the market demand since the leading supplier has announced it will discontinue its line of analog tape after April 2007. So, prof...

I really liked the way the first four seconds sounded. Is that all you wanted to post? because when it opened up and played in iTunes it ended right there at the 4 second mark....

Anyway, nice ramp up to introduce the piano chords.

You'd be suprised what dealers are asking for late 70s Tele deluxes. I've seen people asking over 3k... I think it's a bit insane, but still worth considering. Also for what its worth... those tele frets look kinda right to me, there was never any type of binding on those necks. Even refin'd and mi...

(deleted, didn't come across right, apologies...goodnight)

I gotta say. This is what i do for a living, I work retail at a vintage shop and set-ups/fret work/general repairs are 2/3 of my day. A good dress should do the trick. 150-200ish should be about right. I would tell you not to try it yourself (on these 2 guitars) now matter how slow you take it, cha...

In Seattle got a banjo fret job- dressed, re-glued- really nice work, about $150. In SF, I'd check out Peacock Music. Gary Brawer's shop does good work as well. Don't know prices at either, but Peacock did a lovely job on my brother's old Martin. Cheaper will probably be Subway in Oakland....www.fa...

Sorry for your loss leftofthedial. :cry: Were you able to get it fixed or did they have to replace the frets? What exactly happened? Did you buy one of these kits, or just use some tools you had around? I see on the stewmac site that for an additional fifty bucks they'll send you a dvd that shows yo...

rolandk said:Have they been dressed before? If not, thats probably all they need. I had my strat done a year or two ago and I believe it was $160-ish for a refret and setup. There must be some reputable shops in SF, have them take a look and write up an estimate. If you haven't been there already, ...

I'm sure you can coax something cool from them. They obviously won't sound like the amps on the label... just like my "Hendrix" Fuzz pedal doesn't make me sound like Hendrix. Could you imagine plugging one of these pedals into some kind of "modeling" amp set to the same model? it might just cause b...

Whoops, looks like I'm guilty of posting one of those "please tell me what I think" threads. Yuck. Let me redirect. Alright. Spent a little more time. more refined than the paul, more focused than the "classic rock duncanized" tele deluxe, not as high gain as the Charvel. It's own flavor, and that's...

They definitely make pretty guitars. I figure since I like the build quality, the playability feel and the features, I can always swap out the pickups and still have a killer guitar well under a grand. It won't say Gibson on the headstock, but I'm not really in on this one for the resale. I have a 1...

Cool! I found similar results as this guy, different model but same body and electronics..
